Directions

A saltwater Puget Sound beach at the southern tip of West Seattle, set within a large forested park with miles of trails leading down to the rocky shoreline. The beach offers stunning views of the Olympic Mountains and passing ferries, and the adjacent Colman Pool is a heated saltwater outdoor pool open in summer. The rocky beach is better for exploring tide pools than swimming. Getting there requires a car or a long bus ride for most visitors.
